Sakura's Petals
Poison
Mi Kyung who was busy fanning her face, gasped in shock when she heard the screams earlier. However, unlike most of the palace ladies who directly ran towards the direction of the source of the sound. He doesn't care. Maybe it was the sound of a child splashing in the lake, he thought. Kids are really bad and troublesome. That's what he had in mind.
However, when he saw the panic of the palace maids. He wants to not feel curious. He asked one of his ladies.
“Crown Princess injured, Mistress. He was attacked by a snake while trying to protect the children.”
Mi Kyung frowned deeply. “Protect, you say?”
“Kids playing hide and seek. And one of them hid behind a bush, where snakes nest. The cry of the child made the snake startle and attack him. But before the boy was pegged, the Crown Princess protected him with her hands.”
Mi Kyung can't hide her smile. It would be better if the snake was venomous, he hoped.
THE CROWN PRINCESS'S RESIDENCE HALL
“You are.” sigh Crown Prince. “Luckily, the snake is not venomous. What if the snake is poisonous? You could lose your life, Hwa Ryong-ah.”
“Oppa,” call Hwa Ryong, ticklish. “That's important I'm okay, isn't it? Even if it is venomous, I know that the palace healer can heal me easily.”
“I have been hunting with Father since childhood and have never been attacked by a snake. And you, who usually sew in the room, can be attacked by snakes. I think catastrophe loves you so much, Hwa Ryong.”
“Big do you love me, Oppa?” hwa Goda Ryong.
“No. My love is greater.” kekeh Crown Prince, amused. Gently, he kissed the injured wrist of Hwa Ryong. “Is it still painful?”
Hwa Ryong nodded. “Not since you kissed him.”
THE INNER PALACE
The story of the Crown Princess's self-sacrificing courage to protect orphans is becoming a hot rumor across the country. Many people were amazed at the courage of Hwa Ryong. Not only the people, the palace ladies also have more respect for Hwa Ryong. No exception paddle Mi Kyung. Mi Kyung feels very envious when the King blatantly praises the Crown Princess in the presence of the entire minister. You hypocrite, he thought. It must be the Crown Princess's wits to gain the sympathy of the people and others.
Hatred in his chest, gushing hot. His heart's desire is round to get rid of Hwa Ryong. Especially when his request to be appointed as a concubine was not granted by the Queen. The queen, who was disappointed by Mi Kyung's attitude that day, scolded her as she expressed her request to become a concubine. Not only that, the ladies of his subordinates also praised and sided with Hwa Ryong. Why is there no one to side with me, he asked in his heart. All because of him. Crown Princess.
“Head of Dayang Kim!”
“Iya, Mistress?”
“Call Mr. Nam to face me. I want to talk to him about something.”
“Good, Mistress.”
Mr. Nam is one of the people who can help him achieve his ambitions. With his expertise in poison, Mr. Nam is the right person, Mi Kyung thought.
THE PALACE KITCHEN
“Your Majesty! Your Majesty can't do this.”
Hwa Ryong sighed. “Why? I just want to cook something for the Crown Prince. That's it.”
“It has become a palace rule that palace women should not do such menial work. Your Majesty's hands will be hurt and dirty if cooking.”
“Oho! Making cooking for my husband dirty you say? Don't make me punish you! It's already! Don't stop me. Shut up and let me finish this.”
Hwa Ryong's determination to cook the Crown Prince's favorite dishes is already unanimous. Especially when he remembered that the Crown Prince used to cook something for him on his birthday secretly. At least she wanted to do it for her husband.
Hwa Ryong is so busy chopping onions that she does not realize that Mi Kyung is watching her from a distance. Hwa Ryong's untrained hand injures his finger unintentionally.
“Your Majesty! Are you all right? His Highness the Crown Prince will be angry with the servant if he finds out that I let you get hurt.”
Instead of a ringing in pain, a smile graced Hwa Ryong's face. “At least he knew, that I was also bleeding to make this for him like when he made it for me.” chuckled, slowly.
Mi Kyung gets the idea. Cook knife. A knife would be the perfect tool, he thought to himself. He went back to his residence and met Mr. Nam.
TWO DAYS LATER
Chickens crowed and the bang of the palace bell rang, indicating that the day had gone by in the morning. They were busy preparing and cleaning themselves. However, unlike the other maids, a lady-in-waiting had prepared early and sauntered away at a rapid pace towards the palace kitchen.
His face was full of worry. His grasp on the small bottle in his hand grew even tighter as he entered the palace kitchen space. He immediately looked for the knife commonly worn by the Crown Princess. Once he found it, he quickly covered it with the liquid in the bottle and put the knife back in its place. Like a shadow, it disappeared.
